Description

Tiësto (tiɛsto; born Tijs Verwest (tɛɪs vɛɹʋɛst) on January 17, 1969 in Breda, North Brabant, Netherlands) is one of the world's most famous trance DJs in the electronic dance music scene. Although he has used many aliases in the past, he is best known for his work as DJ Tiësto. On his latest productions, however, he has dropped the "DJ" label and he is now known simply as "Tiësto", an alias which is an Italian twist on his childhood nickname.

His accomplishments include being voted "World’s No.1 DJ " 3 consecutive times by DJ Magazine from 2002 through 2004, the first DJ to play live on stage in front of a public audience at an Olympic Games at the 2004 Summer Olympics Opening Ceremony in Athens, and a nomination for a Grammy Award in 2008, for his album Elements of Life.

Tiësto's motto is: "I feel the energy from the crowd and I try to give it back, to create a unity."
